-Arts & Sciences director Matt Lenski turned video footage of New York’s nightly salute to healthcare workers into a PSA for the United Way, featuring music by Walker (video above).
According to a statement, New York City production partners, friends and clients contributed images that captured their perspective of the nightly salute.
“It’s quite emotional and cathartic—a little reprieve every night,” Lenski, a native New Yorker, said in a statement. “It shows up in all sorts of ways that we would never have expected.
